The South African football icon, Teko Modise turned heads at the 2025 Metro FM Awards at Mbombela Stadium with a fashion masterclass.

When he's not scoring brand deals or dropping soccer insights, the former Mamelodi Sundowns star flaunts his killer style on Instagram.

Football meets fashion

Modise, a Mamelodi Sundowns and Bafana Bafana legend is no stranger to the spotlight. But this time, it wasn’t for his silky passes or midfield dominance but for his bold, trendsetting style.

Wearing a statement tuxedo that married glamour and modern African flair, the retired star reminded fans he’s still very much part of the game — this time, the fashion game.

His tuxedo, part of the Afro Dandy-inspired collection, shimmered with sequins and sophistication. Every detail, from the cropped waist to the dramatic hooded blazer, was tailored to perfection.

Nicknamed "Dona," Modise has carved a unique space in South African pop culture. Whether on the pitch or at a high-profile event, he knows how to own his moment.

This Metro FM appearance confirmed what fans already know — Modise doesn’t follow trends, he sets them.

While many dressed to impress, Modise stood out effortlessly. His ensemble blended heritage with haute couture, proving once again that footballers can lead in lifestyle and fashion.

It wasn’t just about the suit. It was about the presence — composed, confident, and dripping in style.

From Sundowns to style icon

As a club ambassador for Mamelodi Sundowns, Modise continues to inspire the next generation — on and off the pitch. His crossover into fashion reflects a growing trend among footballers to expand their brand identities.
